      @@a666bum I am sure what you think and say are important to you? And it seems like you matter? But judging by your response to my simple compliment about RJ! It's probable it's "YOU " that should look at your behavior? But take care, and enjoy the races!

    RJ is my guy. He’s riding so well! Excited to see him get some good starts outdoors. His charge through the pack at Hangtown was badass… too bad NBC gave it no TV love!
    RJ is my new Zacho. Expect many more good things to come from him 💪

    I used to tell my old racing buddies that this sport was the first great love of our lives.
    Some of us got to take her out on a couple dates while others got to marry her and enjoy the honeymoon; however, no matter the racer, they will ultimately come home to find their suitcases out on the front step with a heartless note saying, "Sorry, met someone new and not so busted up. We're planning on living happily after together, or at least until I kinda get bored again.
    Good luck facing your next chapter in life... bummer we spent so much time together that you are totally ill-prepared to do anything much for a living, though I hear you may have the right resume for a career as a Greeter."
    Some days I wish I hadn't seen that returned 3 hp "Mickey Bike" (real name over the clutch cover) sitting against the front wall of the JC-Penny outlet store... To think it all started with a glance in the wrong direction, $113 price tag requiring me to deliver 29 million Milwaukee Journels in snow up to my hips in order to see that sly smirk from the prettiest giirl at the dance though cleraly missing a soul.

    One of the biggest reasons I really like RJ and Christian is because their family is the absolute paramount of their priorities. Also as a firefighter/paramedic I hate having to move patients who have dislocated hips. Broken hips sometimes you can put a sheet around their hips and tighten it down to stabilize it and it’ll help with pain a bit. Hips are tough

    I’m a big Christian Craig fan. Guys been thru the ringer his whole career with injury after injury after injury. He’s never really had a full season under his belt up until he won the championship with Star. It’s his first season on a new team, new bike and new program. He’s gonna need some time to get used to the bike. Guys ridden aluminum frames pretty much his whole career and now he goes to a steel frame. You can’t expect him to win right off the bat! It took Anderson a few years before his championship, Mookie had to get used to it. RJ has been on that bike/ team for a while. He isn’t out there winning either. Things will click with Christian, he’s a bit older and it may take him a little longer than these kids. He has high expectations and is putting in the work. Maybe a sports psychologist is what he needs to get his mental game a little stronger. He can physically ride and ride well, well enough to win a championship, he just needs some confidence on the mental side of it. I hope to see him back healthy and make a few of the last outdoor races. He has a great family and Paige is a sweetheart! He needs some good results and a confidence booster! I’m not giving up on him! He’s got what it takes! Just needs to put it all together!

  • @dyevursemeditation5534

    RJ is night and day better on the 450. his riding demands more than that 250 can give.. that extra 450power allows him to physically work less... and with his extension, as a fan i was would be disappointed if he didnt have some 450 contingency in there. hes earned it, and proves every single race that his heart and soul is dedicated to the title and to the team. you guys need to be putting him in the light and truly making him beleive he is capable of winning. the riding become second nature when your working on other ventures. lawrence brothers are worrying about their golf strokes not this weekends race. because they beleive it.. RJ is every bit equal, he needs support in beliving it for himself

    Craig peeked in 2022 on star in the lites class , i dont see him getting to that level again after this last injury and now in 450's. Im just being objective and too much of a realist, I hope he proves me wrong

    Saying that the majority of 450 Riders word 250 Champions is literally statistically false. I was always wondering why people don't like him as a commentator and now I understand why

    I mean this in the nicest way possible but I DID NOT know Christian Craig’s attitude was such shit. Maybe an attitude change would turn into better results. Attitude is everything bubba
